Multilingualism in Primary Schools in the Leiden region
Researcher Farah loves to visit, explore and observe international forms of education. During this session, we will be exploring the world of multilingualism in Primary schools in the Leiden region. Dive into the current challenges and opportunities for an array of schools when it comes to the fascinating and colourful world of languages.
